Better default flags (#791)
Before this commit, only the one letter flags interpreted
as tree options were supported.
Now
- the -c (or --cmd) argument is also supported
- long form arguments are supported
Examples:
default_flags: "-s -c thing -gh"
default_flags: "gh" // old syntax
default_flags: --show-git-info --only-folders
